After the rebirth of Madam Hou Clan, her heart was sealed with cement

The old lady snorted coldly, and Zhou took a step forward like a dog-legger, and said softly and pretentiously: "Brothers and sisters, after all, we are a family. You don't give Ling'er and mother face, but you think you are a member of the Duke's Mansion. ?”

Zhou's words to sow discord made the old lady's expression even more ugly, but Tan Zhixu smiled calmly.

"Sister-in-law, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. When did I consider myself a member of the Duke's mansion?"

"Ms. Tan, you still don't admit it?" The old lady slapped the table hard, her stern expression looked very scary.

The maids around were all frightened by the old lady's expression. Even Nanny Huang saw the old lady like this for the first time. She knew that the old lady was really angry.

Song Ling'er glanced at Tan Zhixu, then looked at the old lady, "Mother, I think the second sister-in-law is really capable, so our Marquis Mansion cannot keep her."

Faced with Song Ling'er's cynicism, Tan Zhixu's face darkened, "Ling'er, do you know how many things I have done to keep the Duke's wife from being angry because of your unnecessary actions today? If you feel that you have offended the Duke's wife, you will not If it has an impact, I will do nothing from now on.”

"you……"

As soon as these words came out, Song Ling'er's face turned red. She stood up suddenly and went directly to Tan Zhixu. She pointed at her and wanted to curse, but this time Tan Zhixu didn't tolerate her and didn't wait for the old lady to speak. She stood up directly.

"Ling'er, have you made enough trouble? What you did today has affected you. If you don't handle it well, the princess's reputation will also be affected. Do you think the emperor will let a tainted person be the princess's companion? "

"You, what do you mean?"

Song Ling'er's heart skipped a beat for a moment.

Tan Zhixu knew that Song Ling'er still had to use the status of princess companion.

"Ling'er, taking the initiative to admit your mistakes does not necessarily mean you are wrong. If you have the courage to take responsibility, you will be accepted by others. You should understand this, right?"

Tan Zhixu Yu told Song Ling'er sincerely that she didn't mean well, she just wanted to live peacefully in the Hou Mansion. Now that Song Ling'er was cooperating with the Zhou family, if he didn't win Song Ling'er to his side, then he would The things I want to do may be a bit difficult.

Zhou had been standing in front of the old lady. She originally wanted to question Tan Zhixu with the old lady, but unexpectedly, she resolved the issue with a few words.

Thinking of what she had experienced during this period, Ms. Zhou felt indignant and immediately stepped forward, "Brother and sister, you deliberately prevented Ling'er from getting off the stage. Why are you acting like a good person now?"

"Did I do it on purpose?" Tan Zhixu sneered and shouted to Guyu outside the door, who saw Guyu coming in with a wooden box.

The old lady winked at Nanny Huang, and the box came into Nanny Huang's hands. When she opened it, she saw valuable jewelry.

Aunt Huang looked at Tan Zhixu in disbelief, as did the others.

At this time, Tan Zhi Xucai explained: "In order to save the face of our Marquis Mansion, I asked the Duke's wife for the reward with a shy face, and the Duke's wife praised Ling'er in front of many people. "

After Tan Zhixu finished speaking, the old lady instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

With today's incident, Song Ling'er was not the only one who was embarrassed. The entire Hou family was also embarrassed. Fortunately, Tan Zhixu solved the crisis.

Thinking of her second daughter-in-law, the old lady couldn't help but look at her twice. It seemed that she had misunderstood her.

Seeing that the old lady's expression softened, Zhou wanted to say something else, but the old lady gave her a cold look and she shut up instantly.

"Tan Shi, everything you said is true."

"nature."

"Second sister-in-law, do I have to thank you?" Song Ling'er looked at Tan Zhixu strangely. Even though she knew that she had gained face for herself, Song Ling'er still didn't want to see Tan Zhixu.

Who makes this woman always more popular than herself.

Ever since Tan Zhixu appeared, no matter what the occasion, she would be the most charming in the end.

These were all hers before, but why were they snatched away by her, the daughter of a small county magistrate?Thinking of this, Song Ling'er sneered and saluted Tan Zhixu, "Second sister-in-law, it's getting late, so Ling'er will go and rest first."

Before she finished speaking, she had already left the ancestral hall.

Seeing that Tan Zhixu could not be punished today, Zhou didn't want to stay here anymore, so she found an excuse to leave.

In an instant, only the old lady and Tan Zhixu were left in the ancestral hall.

Tan Zhixu glanced at the old lady. When she stood up and walked towards him, she pursed her lips and smiled, thinking: It's finally your time to perform.

As soon as she thought of this, the old lady took Tan Zhixu's hand and said, "Second room, actually I know that you have done so much for our Hou Mansion, but Ling'er is still a child after all, so don't be angry with her. .”

The old lady looked old and looked at Tan Zhixu with a cold look in her eyes.

Tan Zhixu nodded, with a flash of tears in his eyes, "Both mother and daughter-in-law know this. As long as our Marquis Mansion is doing well, I don't care."

"Good boy."

The two said some personal words, and the old lady left.

After watching her leave, Tan Zhixu snorted coldly, "You still want to annoy me with just a few words? Old lady, now that I have lived two lifetimes, I will never listen to you again."

"Girl, let's go back and rest."

Guyu looked at Tan Zhixu tiredly.

Thinking that this girl was busy these days, Tan Zhixu felt heartbroken and pulled her back to the yard.

A good night's sleep.

The next day, Tan Zhixu did not ask anyone to wake Gu Yu up, but went to the dock alone.

She has been busy with the affairs of the Duke's Mansion these past few days. She has paid little attention to the goods of the Duke's Mansion, and now it is time to pay more attention to them.

As soon as they arrived at the dock with the boy, they saw the workers of the Hou Mansion's ship rushing to the dock.

At this moment, Tan Zhixu was still frightened. She always felt that something had happened. She quickly picked up her skirt and came to the pier, "What happened?"

When the steward of the Hou Mansion saw Tan Zhixu, he immediately bowed and said, "Second Madam, it's not good, our ship of the Hou Mansion has sunk."

"Down?"

Tan Zhixu was shocked. In the past life and this life, it was the first time that a ship sank. What happened?

"Is that the shipment?"

Her heart was hanging, and she looked at the steward with eager eyes.
The steward looked at Tan Zhixu, then sighed and looked at the sea not far away, "That's the batch of our herbal medicine."

"Herbs?"

Hearing such an answer, Tan Zhixu's heart froze. It was indeed a herbal medicine. Now something big is about to happen. If these herbal medicines disappear, how many people will be in trouble?
Thinking of this, Tan Zhixu couldn't hold on and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, someone beside her helped her, "Thank you very much."

Tan Zhixu looked sideways at the person supporting him, and met Gu Huaijing's burning eyes.

"Master Gu?"

"Second Madam, you are well." Gu Huaijing was no longer as harsh as before when facing Tan Zhixu, especially those eyes that always looked probing and distressed.
